I'm game most anytime, Bill. I met a collector who tells me there are some nice reefs right out from Ft. Pierce. I didn't ask location because he knows I'm in the business and felt he wouldn't willingly give me his coordinates.

A couple of casual acquaintances have said buy the gear, you are going to want it anyhow. Others have said, you would be better off renting because you won't go all that often and will always have the most up to date equipment. |
Get-r-done, Carmie. You will love it. As for buying or renting, I'd buy because it becomes more familiar to you and you can count on it because you take care of it. Renting is not always getting the most up to date equipment. Personally, I'd buy my own.
Laura,
Here are some dates Sue is off and excited to go snorkeling, July 8th, 10th and 11th, plus the 15th, 16th, and 17th. We ought to be able to find a day to get together in there. Of course she is subject to call, too. We haven't been in the ocean yet this summer, what is the temp?
Dick
